What reviewers say
“Happy Bordeaux Sunday! Château Larrivet Haut-Brion is located in the Pessac-Léognan appellation, a stone's throw from its competitor, Château Haut-Bailly. Its vineyard covers an area of 72 hectares of sandy and gravelly soil and benefits from optimal exposure.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Beautiful deep garnet-red colour with a complex, charming bouquet featuring roasted and toasty aromas as well as hints of black fruit and vanilla. Elegant, concentrated, powerful, and well-balanced on the palate. Long aftertaste with remarkably smooth tannin. A great wine with fine ageing potential that will richly reward patience.
Château Larrivet Haut-Brion Pessac-Léognan is a red from Pessac-Léognan, France. At $49.92 for the lowest 750 ml listing, it belongs to the $30–60 band. It blends Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 1,133 other reds from France, not against the corpus as a whole. 3,979 Vivino reviewers are calibrated for this bottle, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 4,079 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track.
